  I respect Ko Win Naing's rights to express his own idea and his out 
look 
  eventhough I disagree with him.  I am a former ABSDF  member now 
  living in LA.  I will refute point by point of his statement by 
expressing 
  my own ideas and my out look.  I will not accuse him as a betrayal of 
  our cause because he has his own way and I have mine too.  but I will 
  highlight what is seem to me right for this moment.

Sincerely 
Aung Baw

If Ko Win Naing did not collaborate with the military regime, they will 
not
 let him come.  First he has to submit his corporation and promise not 
to meet 
 with Aung San Suu Kyi.  Even though, Ko Win Naing and Daw Mya Mya Win 
 touring around the country freely, MI were escorting them or watching 
them 
 definately.

 No. 1 point, you are repeating the words of SLORC/SPDC that 
neocolonialist are trying to control Burma.  Burma , China and Asean 
countries 
are victims of the western power.  The word "hegemony" is first use in 
the 
political field by the Chinese gov.  It seems you are sympathic to the 
Red 
Chinese communist rather than Western democracies.  Why do you want to 
blame to western countries?  Do you want democracy or restore 
dictatorship again.

I am not defending NLD, but NLD has been calling for dialogue since they 
won 
the 1990 election.
SLORC ignored their call and when they started they pickup who were 
allowed to and others were not including ASSK.  Do you forget the facts?

I have to go, our lad is closing.  I do not have my own computer.   I 
will 
continue this topic later.
